Economic Data Says Time to Buy is Now
Demand for homes will be increasing, particularly in Northern California, a fact underscored by newly released market data showing the Oakland metro area has the lowest months of home supply in the entire country, a dynamic which will drive price hikes in our region first. According to John Burns Real Estate Consulting, government intervention has helped home sales, and the good news should continue with developments last week. The $8,000 Federal tax credit stimulated significant sales and this successful program has been extended, and expanded to include a $6,500 credit for those who’ve been in their homes 5+ years. Mortgage Rates are at their lowest in history and rates on 30-year loans fell below 5% on November 5th. Down payment relief is growing with only 3.5% down required through the FHA, whose market share has grown from 2% to 23%. Lastly, on a macro-economic level, the $800 billion stimulus will be kicking in soon. THE BOTTOM LINE: the time to buy is now before everyone rushes back in, call your Community Representative today and schedule your appointment!
Don’t Be Fooled by the “Value” of Foreclosure Pricing
If you buy a foreclosure, you’ll likely get 9 months and $25K worth of headaches….but if you buy a Trilogy home at Rio Vista, you’ll get up to $50K in solar and green features and total peace of mind. Don’t be tempted by the seemingly great “value” foreclosed homes offer. They also come with the high cost and hassle of remodeling, and risk as to the soundness of the home and its systems. You may regret your decision for a long time. Buying a brand new, green home at Trilogy comes with real value at a low price, and you’ll save up to 60% on energy costs.
